In anticipating the cold and SNOW today - I put together a lasagna yesterday that my teen could put in the oven when he got home from school today. I can be a lazy cook at times, and lasagna is one of those times. I do not precook my noodles. Ever. The are cooked through during the resting ad baking process and the ensuing lasagna is delicious - every single time.

My lasagna is like a good pound cake. A pound of this, a pound of that in order to make a small 9x9 pan with eight servings. OK, with 8 healthy sized servings leaving room for some side vegetables and salad. For American sized portions, this 9x9 pan would serve four. The family voted that we will have this again on Wednesday. No one will eat the leftovers unless I serve them as supper. So Wednesday I will present to you my foolproof homemade dinner role recipe, which is perfect with any meal.

The finished product. This will result in a firmer, less saucy lasagna. If you prefer a more liquid state to your creation, boil and drain the noodles first. Then the sauce will sit on the surface of the noodles. With uncooked noodles the noodles absorb the liquids from the other ingredients while cooking creating a firmer textured meal.
